Why families choose us

Built around real independence — not just filling a bed

We're deliberately small. That's our advantage: your family member is a person we know by name, not a number on a roster.

🏠

Small, settled homes

Two to three people per home — chosen carefully so housemates actually get along. A calm household, not an institution.

👥

The same faces

Consistent support workers who learn each person's routines, likes and goals. Trust is built through familiarity, not a rotating cast.

🎯

Skills, every day

Cooking, money, transport, confidence — every shift has a purpose. We measure success by what your family member can do more of over time.

🔎

Genuine transparency

You and the support coordinator can see what's actually happening — not a report written months later. Progress you can trust.

🧩

Intellectual disability focus

This is our specialism, not one service among many. We understand routine, communication, and behaviour support done well.

🤝

You can reach us

Director-level involvement and an open door. When something matters, you speak to a person who can actually help — quickly.

Not sure where to start?

How moving into a SIL home usually works

It's less complicated than it feels. Here's the typical path — we'll walk you through every step.

1. A first conversation

Tell us about your family member — their needs, routines and what a good day looks like. No commitment.

2. Check the fit

We look at compatibility with the existing housemates, funding, and support needs. Honesty first — if we're not right, we'll say so.

3. Visit the home

Come and see the house, meet the team, and picture daily life. Bring whoever you need to.

4. Plan the move

We coordinate with your support coordinator and plan a gentle transition at a pace that suits your family member.
